German-Japan Energy Transition Comission, The Second Young Scientists Dialogue
This research aims to develop a framework to explore scenarios which are compatible with the global 1.5°C climate target. This entails explorations of socio-economic scenarios, as well as technological assumptions on energy systems, which can be supported by stakeholders at the same time satisfying an emission benchmark. First, we set up three...
APRU 2024 Multi-hazard Workshop: All-Hazards Approach (AHA) / Science and Technology for DRR IRIDeS, Tohoku University
In a globalized world, disaster impacts seldom remain within political boundaries but often spill over beyond national boundaries. These transboundary risks bring an added complexity to the way the multi-hazard risks impact society. Until now, most risk assessments are focused within one’s political boundaries, and that worked with limited...
